Brad and Darleen both had long and successful careers in Massachusetts real estate prior to meeting at REMAX in October of 2011. They immediately appreciated each other’s strengths in the business and began working on projects together. They started dating in July of 2012 and were Married on Cape Cod July 14th 2013. Brad and Darleen’s business has boomed ever since becoming a TEAM. They have both achieved the Certified Residential Specialist designation which is the highest designation awarded by the National Association of Realtors. They are very proud members of the National association of Realtors, Massachuetts Association of Realtors, and the Greater Boston real estate board. They work with buyers and sellers equally well and strive to have raving fans as clients. Almost all of our clients actually become our friends as we go through the process. Brad and Darleen bring very different skill sets to the team. Kind of a good cop bad cop TEAM. Brad is laid back, easygoing and very knowledgeable about all aspects of residential construction as he was in the business for years. Darleen brings a tough go getter approach along with a great sense of humor to the TEAM. Darleen had a career in the corporate world prior to real estate which helps the TEAM with organization and structure. Our tagline “AN EXPERIENCED TEAM ALWAYS OUTPERFORMS AN INDIVIDUAL” is not simply a tagline. They make it the truth and strive for unprecedented service and value. When working with Brad and Darleen you are getting two seasoned veterans working for you fulltime. They have an 877-481-5544 number that rings them both so that you will reach one of us when you call. Phone, text, or email us anytime.
"As a first-time homebuyer, navigating the real estate market seemed daunting. However, thanks to the exemplary service provided by Team Pratt (Brad and Darleen), my experience was nothing short of exceptional. From the initial consultation to the final closing, Brad and Darleen demonstrated unparalleled professionalism, expertise, and dedication. Brad and Darleen took the time to understand our specific needs, preferences, and budget constraints. Their extensive knowledge of the local market was evident as they provided valuable insights and guidance throughout the entire process. They patiently answered all my questions, alleviating any concerns and ensuring I felt informed and confident every step of the way. What truly sets Team Pratt apart is their unwavering commitment to their clients and the construction experience that Brad brings to the table. Brad takes good time to walk through every detail of the house during the showings. He pretty much finishes most of the inspection to be honest. Their proactive communication and attention to detail were remarkable, ensuring that no detail was overlooked and that all deadlines were met seamlessly. Beyond their professionalism, Brad and Darleen's genuine care and empathy were truly appreciated. They understood the emotional significance of buying a home and provided invaluable support and reassurance during what can often be a stressful process. Their warmth and approachability made us feel like more than just a client but rather a valued partner in achieving our homeownership dreams. I cannot recommend them highly enough to anyone in search of a real estate agent who combines unparalleled professionalism with genuine care and dedication. Thank you, Brad and Darleen, for your outstanding service and unwavering support!"

It’s important to get a home inspection when buying a home because home inspectors are trained to examine the various aspects of a home to determine that everything is in good condition and find unseen problems that current homeowners need to fix before the home sale takes place. Although home inspections are not legally required, a thorough inspection can help you decide if you want to purchase a home. That’s why it’s essential to keep a home inspection contingency so that you have the option to walk away from the sale if the home inspection reveals expensive issues.
A home inspection typically includes the home inspector conducting a thorough visual examination of essential home structures and mechanical components. Afterward, the inspector will provide a home inspection report that relays descriptions of damage or other findings for the homeowner to review.
Home inspectors will examine the following home areas and features:
Plumbing
Electrical
Foundations
Roof
Windows and doors
Overall condition of interior and exterior
HVAC systems
Attics
Basements or crawl spaces
Major built-in appliances
Typically, a licensed and certified local home inspector conducts home inspections. Real estate agents often work closely with trusted home inspectors. Licensing requirements vary from state to state for home inspectors, but they must have local certification and valid insurance. Many licensed home inspectors belong to professional associations like the American Society of Home Inspectors.
Typically, the home buyer pays for the inspection by hiring a home inspector. This method helps you make an informed decision about a home’s condition before purchasing it. Home sellers can also conduct their own home inspection to ensure that they are getting the best price for their home and property.
On average, home inspections cost about $350, ranging from $200 to $500, depending on the home’s size, age, and location, plus any specialty inspections required. Additional cost factors include testing for asbestos or conducting thermal imaging tests to find infestations, checking energy efficiency, and looking for structural or electrical problems. If your home is more than 2,000 square feet, you can expect to pay $400 or more.
